Dear Readers, Seven years ago, I wrote my first Dagger story. This one is my farewell. The years in between have been filled with stories I’ll never forget.

Here’s How The Dagger Is Voting On Election Day. How Will You Vote?
Halloween night, downtown Washington, D.C. The corner of F Street and 7th is a freak show – 10,000 people just let out of a rock concert. There’s a girl dressed up as Laura Croft from Tomb Raider, with the outfit, physique, and handguns to back it up. There’s a wild-eyed guy sitting on a bucket […]
The Dagger: Year One
Like most things in life, good and bad, The Dagger started off innocently enough. On September 7, 2007, the first introductory story, a two-paragraph piece aptly titled “Introductions,” was posted onto the Internet.
